System Analysis and Conceptual Design to Automate Administrative Functions Using Waterfall Method: A Case of Public University in Bangladesh

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze systems requirements and conceptualize designs to automate the traditional administrative functions of public universities in Bangladesh. Before implementing any software or website, system analysis and design are the core functions to formulate. In this paper, Requirement analysis is done with interview and observation, and conceptual design is done with Microsoft Visio software to identify a use case model, activity diagram, sequence diagram, and UML diagram to automate the administrative functions of Noakhali Science and Technology University situated in Bangladesh. The first two phases of the waterfall method are used in this paper to validate the result. The result shows the number of users of the systems, user requirements, and sequential tasks to automate administrative functions.
